Alexandru Sandoiu - Arms Lyrics

It's not easy living alone
I've got to be ready, hard times are sure to follow
Never been good at finding someone of my own
But I've let go of melancholy and of sorrow
And I'm waiting for you with open arms.

I've got nothing to hide
Just wanting someone near
Someone whom I can love, someone in whom I can confide
To face the world as it is, without any fear
And I'm waiting for you with open arms.

My friends say I've been too guarded
Yet I've opened up to so many people, they've departed
When I needed them to stay
Just for them to believe the words that I say
Is solitude the partner which turns the night into day?

Friends to lovers, lovers to friends
Who can I turn to, when everyone pretends?
Yet my heart will always look for the best
For someone who's different from the rest
The one who'll gust some life into my chest.

But maybe I'm expecting a lot
And I wish I could make time stop
Instead of helping it take its shot
And watch me to the ground slowly drop
My heart isn't really a one stop shop.

But here I am, stuck in this whirlwind again
Not getting any peace of mind
I'd feel a rush and then
Go all in, full-on blind
Even if it'll hurt these open arms of mine.
